For Critical Illness -
I would go for the policy which is covering maximum disease -
ICICI Pru Life's Crisis Cover - 35 Diseases (VALID upto 70 years)
HDFC Standard's Critical Plan - 30 Diseases (VALID upto 65 years)

Thanks Sanjay for your response.

But, don't you think we should avoid health policies from Life insurance companies (ICICI Pru Life)

vgupta_2002 - The link you have posted is talks about the Health Insurance and the query you have asked above is about 'Critical Illness Plan'.

General Insurer plans are costlier then Life Insurers
